They're here! I won't be able to get into them until my lunch break, but I can already tell these are going to be great. They have a nice weight to them. Something I wasn't expecting was the flap on the front being held with a magnet. That's a nice touch. ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230605/a4be2fdcd7b549a2a381c04165a4ab31.jpg)

I preordered Brody the second these went live. How do some people have these in hand already and I haven’t even gotten a shipment notification yet?

No rhyme nor reason with the shipping apparently. I ordered the full set the hour it went online and nothing here either. Last name starts with an S and in Texas.

I pre ordered magnum & Brody within the first hour of live too and still no shipping email. I’m in GA. Maybe they’re shipping out to folks who ordered the full sets first? But more likely just completely random

I ordered a full set really soon after these went live and don't have a shipping notice yet either. I live in CO, for what it's worth.

Remco S1 is the Rock & Roll Express, Bobo Brazil, Missing Link, Tully, Magnum TA, Tito Santana, Nick Bockwinkel
Not planning to collect the line, but I'd gladly buy most of those in the 7in scale.

I guess I shouldn’t be worried since several still haven’t shipped like mine. Is there really no method to the order they ship? My order #1399 if they are doing them in numerical order… i ordered within minutes of them going up

I would be all in on those in the Ultra line myself. I fully suspect that we will se RnR Express and Nick Bockwinkel at the very least now in Wave 2. Magnum we just got. Tito Santana is probably not needed (there is still the stigma of the amount of HOF figures that Target got stuck with a few years back). I could see Bobo, Link, and Tully in the Ultra Line, just not right away as I would think they would want to keep it different from the Remco line.

My order #1399 if they are doing them in numerical order… i ordered within minutes of them going up I was wondering that. I have two orders, #1281 and #2812. First was 3 figures from when they first went up Sept 16, then the second was a full set at the end of October (28th). Both show as 'Unfulfilled' and now there is a third order, dated June 4, with a number of #1282_#2812_OM, $0.00 and Paid, and that shows as Unfulfilled too. I am guessing that simply combines everything into one so they can ship all but the Kerry figures together. So not sure how that works, and that order combining may have put me at the end of the line. Assuming order number is the criteria that is used. OR, they may go by name, and if that is the case, my last name starts with SPR so I may be towards the end of the list that way too.

Tito, Link, and RnRX would be definite pickups in this scale. Hopefully they can do the green IC title for Tito.

I opened up the Brody and the Magnum so far. Some quick notes. These figure are really well made, they have a nice weight to them. They are definitely bulkier than anything else out on the market. Brody is taller than the Ultimate Diesel. They don't have holes for a stand for those that use them. The belts are far too big to use with Mattel or Jazwares. I noticed the US title has the NWA branding on it, so maybe the 10 pounds of gold can be done?
Also, the boots pop off very easily. I'm assuming this is by design because you have to put the kneepads on Magnum.
Overall, I like these alot, but they don't scale perfectly with Mattel.

Yes, they have an agreement with NWA to use their branding.

Here's a quick comparison. The belt is as tight as is can go. ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230605/cc344544a9df7fc38e249c37cf2fdc6e.jpg)

Thunder Chunkyawesome! I’m sure everyone wants to see more pics since you are one of the first to get them. My only complain based on what I’ve seen is they forgot magnum wrist tape.

They should definitely add pegs, and it’s funny everyone was complaining about the belts being too small and now they’re too big for Mattel’s?
And while they don’t need to necessarily abide by Mattel scaling, Brody should be shorter then Nash, obviously.
The renders show Magnum with his wrist tape, so that’s disappointing from a QC standpoint.
